Will I need to initially connect the Snugg IPad portable keyboard to a MAC computer for it to work?

I'm pretty sure it has no connection to your Mac computer. It's made as a keyboard for Ipads. It took me less than 3 minutes to hook it up to my Ipad 2. Just follow the directions on the box & it should have typing you typing right away. It will look similar to a laptop, only smaller.

Sure... Mines paired quite well after I called the manufacturer and they walked me step by step.. And it went smooth as I had quite and issue connecting as well.. Tips: 1 Make sure batteries at full. 2. Make sure it's switched to Mac in the back of keypad of device. 3. Make sure your Mac actually picks up the device. 4. I recommend you looking up the # as it went by like a breeze with me.. They will walk you step by step hope this helped!!!

For all you mac people here, i suggest downloading ControllerMate, which i was able to configure to support most of the special keys (sometimes with my own scripts rather than the intended purpose). Its not free, but its worth it to have this sexy keyboard work properly with my mac

Yes. I just put the USB into mac and the mouse immediately started working. The keyboard also starts working after going through the standard wizard with simple screens - which is a typical thing on any mac device when you connect an external keyboard.

I have the dongle plugged into a belkin powered 6 port USB hub and the keyboard works fine, except I can't boot into Bootcamp unless I attach a wired keyboard. Whether on not I could boot into Bootcamp with the dongle plugged into the back of the iMac instead of the hub, I haven't tried.

It works with my Macbook Pro. I just plug into the HDMI interface on my Mac and into the keyboard and it worked right out of the box.

The user manual tells how to connect the keyboard to a computer (Windows based or a Mac), but you would have to buy a USB cable and a Casio USB Audio Device to do it. I have never done it and the details for connecting are a little vague.

I don't think so, but even if you could I would recommend a wireless version. This is wired. I prefer my Macbook wireless keyboard.

If your iMac has a bluetooth connection it should have no problem working. It's a pretty generic bluetooth device.

If your iPad supports bluetooth and I think yours will, the key board will work.

I think that depends on where your Macbook malfunctions. If the input system and USB ports function well then this keyboard will work. If the input part is down, then it wont work.I suggest you borrow your friend's USB keyboard and try it on your mac, and then decide whether buy this item or not. Hope it helps.

No, the iPad does not have thunderbolt connection, so it would not work. Only Macs proper have the thunderbolt connection.

I've connected it to other devices, though this keyboard has iDevice specific function keys. Many work, some do not. As far as the basic keyboard, though, you should be good to go there.

And why do you want to connect a Bluetooth keyboard to your MacBook? Doesn't that have a key pad?

I do not have a MacBook but I do use an Apple Mini iPad. The iPad needed no work on my side to work it just connected. That's that. My guess would be an overwhelming YES

Yes it will work just fine. I have it plugged into my Macbook pro. 10.9.2. It is good keyboard, cheap quality but it is also cheap in price. Don't spill anything on it as it has absolutely no tolerance. I get a year or a little more out of each one then just throw it away and order a new one. I don't use all the fancy keys what matters to me is the ergonomic design. I hate straight keyboards. And I agree I don't care much for the Apple Keyboard. But the iMac will be one of the best computers you ever owned. Good luck.

Hi SGC,As S. Endres has said, the keyboard should be compatible with a mac. I'm not 100% percent sure as I have a Windows laptop that I am using the keyboard for, and I don't have a mac around to test, but as far as I know, it should be a simple plug and play. I didn't install any drivers or the sort when I was first using it, and it has been working great so far, no complaints.
